Webinar
On Centerline: Avoiding Loss of Directional Control During Takeoff and Landing
Wednesday, October 22, 2025, 7 p.m. CDT
Presenter: Tom Turner
Loss of Directional Control on the Runway (LODC-R) is one of the most common lightplane accident scenarios. Although LODC-R rarely causes serious injury or death, it frequently results in significant damage that is expensive to fix or “totals” the aircraft. History shows most LODC-R events happen when the crosswind component is less than 10 knots, telling us it’s the pilot, not the wind, that is the root cause. The good news is that means there are things pilots can do to recognize situations where we are at risk of losing control and techniques we can adopt to avoid the hazards. In this program we’ll explore those scenarios and highlight those techniques so you can confidently keep it on the centerline. Qualifies for FAA WINGS credit.
